Oh yeah, and it's on Sky Sports 2 if anyone else is interested.

A couple of quick wickets sees Australia trying to claw their way back into this game and a maiden from Lee just then. England still very well placed.

Bell got out trying to play an uppish drive over cover and was easily caught by 'Mr Cricket' Hussey.

Didn't see how Pietersen got out though, I'd stepped to grab some milk and bread and a nice coffee ... mmm, coffee.

Eng 100-2 off 23.2 overs.

Flintoff has a rush of blood early in his dig and skies one to deep midwicket where 'Mr Cricket' once again makes it look all too easy.

Flintoff gone for 4, bowler Watson.

110-3 off 25.5

[TP]

Pietersen was caught behind by Gilchrist off Johnson for 1 by the way. I've just seen the scorecard.

Dunno who this Yardly character is batting now, never heard of him! When's Vaughan back?

[TP]

Symonds strikes in his first over!

Strauss gone, caught behind off a gem of a delivery. Stauss played a good knock for his half century but perhaps he needed to hang around and anchor the innings?

The momentum is swinging back towards Aus ... still a long day to come yet though.

[TP]

Yardy gone! Caught behind off Watson's bowling but to be fair it looked iffy, not sure it actually caught his glove ...

Still, he's gone for 4 and England are 128-5 off 32.4

[TP]

Oh Ponting takes an awesome catch diving forward fielding at mid-on to dismiss Dalrymple off Johnson's bowling. He's always been a very special fielder!

Dalrymple with a bit of poor technique there, the bat too far out in front of him. He's gone for 3 and England are 135 - 6 off 36 overs.

Australia starting to take a hold of this game after the very good start given to England by Bell and Strauss.
